I'm trying to plan a bonefish trip on the cheap to Roatan,honduras, part of group of bay islands off the coast of honduras and thought it would be really cool to get a group of us from the forum here maybe 4-6 of us go on a bonefish holiday adventure. might even create a few new friendships. novembe...

just had some st george redfish for dinner i'm a wade fanatic myself. the water temps are getting cooler. i would look for 4-5' depth or wade around the river mouths. reds, trout will start to head in up the rivers soon. lets us know how you do. welcome aboard

As part of my research i have been looking up several small lure companies to see how business is going. there are lots of very profitable small lure companies out there. there are also many that went out of business within the last few years. in this new stagnate, volatile global economy you really...

juan i feel you man. i agree with you. i think softies do have a pretty large market. but there is a pretty good hard bait market too. i went to bainbridge walmart to see whats selling in the fishing dept. last night. i discovered that wacky/senko style worms are selling like hot cakes! this is good...

got your pm. thanks. I've been doing lots of research and I'm definitely stoked at this point! I've been talking to fresh and salt water angers and getting some great feedback. I have been thinking about entering the hard bait market too. i even thought about launching with a hard bait. i think hard...

second pic looks like a mullet from hell!!

@reelcatch, that sounds great. i will look into them. i'm still in the early stage of development atm. but when i begin production i will give them a call. I still need to find the right molds. been sorting though various soft plastic mold layouts. i also need to find good resealable bag manufacture...

thanks for all the feedback guys. i'm getting a really good feeling about this. It would be a dream to run a small lure co. out of my garage. I'll take your advice about ebay. I'll instead sell directly through website and through mom&pops shops. my packaging will make the japanese tremble! :) w...

dear big bend community i would like to get your I decided after much thought to launch a small line of artificial lures on a very small scale. or at least give it an honest effort :D I've had some interesting concepts in the back of my head for a while. my initial launch lineup of lures called &quo...

how did you guys do? i'm going up in the morning with a friend. i'm not bringing the fly rods. just pole fishing:) you know it's pretty new to me. i would describe it as fishings most purist form. just got a new breammaster 10' pole that is as light and sensitive as a 1wt. it has a creamy soft super...

I'm also interested in fishing this area. but I'll be fishing near hwy 98 along lanark and carabelle. maybe lanark reef. how is the inshore fishing for reds in this area?

ok cool. i'll check it out. either panacea or carrabelle are fine with me. though i'm leaning more towards carrabelle. never ate or for that matter spent much time in either town. I do know the food in apalachicola is rockin! I had a fresh AJ sandwich at Tamara's last month and loved it! it was my f...

count me in. i'm planning on entering the kayak division. it will be my first ever tournament. pretty excited about it . between carrabelle and panacea which has the better night life such as seafood and bars/saloons in walking distance from hotel/motel?

jumptrout, i couldn't make the trip. sounds pretty cool though. where did you guys fish for the sat club tourney?

i'm not that familiar with pc. you can try under the bridge. there is a catwalk. along the seawall there is surprisingly big mango snapper approaching 12+" there are lots of big pinfish and sheepshead will usually get your shrimp first so it's better to use gulp or micro pinfish for mangos. try...
